Come and try Group Reformer Pilates Classes at Focus Pilates Studio. The sessions are designed to improve length and strength while giving you a great workout on the Reformer. The sessions are designed for those seeking a fun and dynamic workout that will not only improve your fitness but also help you move better and feel better.

The reformer is a specialized piece of Pilate’s apparatus that utilizes spring loading and your own body weight for resistance. The reformer allows you to explore range of motion gently, challenge your stability and test your strength with the extensive repertoire of exercises you can perform on them. The reformer is an incredibly versatile machine that can target all body parts without the impact associated with other modes of exercises.

Exercises can be done in lying, sitting, standing, kneeling, pushing the foot bar, perched on shoulder pads, feet in straps and hands in straps. There are literally hundreds of exercises that can be performed on the reformer.

Our Group Reformer Pilates Classes accommodate up to 7 participants and participants run through a 50-minute session together. No session will be exactly the same as another session to keep things interesting and to ensure you are challenged. Don’t worry if you can’t perform an exercise in the session. Our expert instructors have many regressions and lateralization’s in their tool kit and can modify an exercise for you on the fly. If they see you are breezing through a movement too easily, your instructor may give you a progression to increase the challenge if you feel you are ready for it.

Technique and breathing are of utmost importance during our reformer classes and it should be for all modes of exercise. Our instructors will queue you on certain subtleties and positions to ensure you make the most of your sessions and not just go through the motions. If you have not had any Pilates or reformer experience or need a refresher, it is always best to book yourself in for an obligation free reformer induction with one of our staff. It takes approximately 20 minutes and we go through safety, a basic repertoire of exercises and go on to explain what some typical and frequently used queues actually mean.

For new clients at Focus Physio & Pilates we have an introductory offer of $25 for 2 weeks of reformer classes where you can attend up to 3 times per week. We are offering this special introductory offer as we understand that it often takes people time to adjust to the class structure and exercise and we want you to feel the difference that doing this unique mode of exercise provides. We are passionate about health and movement. Our goal is always to enable you to move well and move often.
